The Unfaithful Mr. Scott

Chapter 114



Chapter 114 The game ended quickly. It was almost a tie, and each group missed the hole at least once.

However, none of them cared about the result. They quipped at each other, and Kellen suggested having a barbecue after the game.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Eugene attended, and Melanie naturally had to follow.

The golf course was a recreational club. They took the buggy to the barbecue place in the club.

It was by a clear lake, and it was a scenic spot.

Simon and Kellen were already drinking wine, while Eugene was nowhere to be seen.

Melanie did not want to drink, so she sat in a quiet corner.

She had not replied to Xander’s message. Just as she took out her phone, the dean of the nursing home called her.

Melanie answered and heard the dean’s anxious voice. “Miss Smith, when will you be back in Jepton? | think | have to let you know something about Mr. Lancaster.

“Mr. Lancaster has been going out frequently to the bank and seems like he’s in a rush. When the caretaker went with him today, he heard the bank employee saying he had almost withdrawn everything in his bank.”

Melanie’s expression turned gloomy. She had not thought of how to tell her grandfather about Dylan’s matter.

Anger burned in her as she endured it and spoke to the dean before hanging up the call.

She looked at the calendar on her phone and pondered.

Her appetite was gone, and she strode toward Eugene. She wanted to know if she could take a leave.

The seats were random, and this area was livelier. Simon and Kellen were good at entertaining

everyone.

When she approached, Kellen happened to want to toast Eugene. “Mr. Scott, you’re young and successful. Let’s toast upon it.” Just as he spoke, a clear voice came from beside him. “Mr. Scott has work to do this evening. I'll drink on his behalf.”

Melanie took three glasses and filled them with wine.

She looked at Kellen and casually said, “Mr. Jein, since you’re toasting Mr. Scott, I’ll have to drink three glasses if | were to drink on Mr. Scott's behalf to express my sincerity.”

Kellen was displeased at first but admired Melanie when she said that. Melanie drank up three glasses of wine in one go. When she was done, her cheeks were flushing.

Her alcohol tolerance was not good, yet she could still look into Kellen’s eyes. She poured another glass of wine for herself. “This is for you, Mr. Jein.”

Chapter 14 Kellen nodded but did not toast her. He looked at Melanie with interest. “Miss Smith, you're Mr. Scott’s secretary. Why do you have to toast me?”

Melanie was a little taken aback, but she said, “If it weren’t for you, Mr. Jein, | wouldn’t be able to relax in a place like this with Mr. Scott.”

Kellen looked at Eugene. “Your secretary is good at speaking.”

Eugene did not say anything, so Kellen changed the topic. Melanie smiled and nodded by the side.

After Kellen left, others came to toast Eugene. Melanie drank everything for him.

When the gathering ended, Melanie was dizzy and could only rest on the swing.

It was quiet around her. Melanie looked around, only to find out that everyone had left.

Firm footsteps approached Melanie.

It was a familiar scent, and Melanie looked at Eugene before her. She wanted to pull him, yet she had not much strength left and could only reach the hem of his shirt.

Melanie moved her lips and lifted her head. “Eugene, | feel dizzy.”
